Abstract: An endoscope, wherein when the distal end surface as viewed from a front is sectioned to four regions by a first axis parallel to a first direction and a second axis parallel to a second direction, and the four regions are respectively referred to as a first region, a second region, a third region and a fourth region in counterclockwise order, a center of an observation window is disposed at the first region, a center of the second treatment tool outlet port is disposed at the third region, a center of the first treatment tool outlet port is disposed at the fourth region, a front water supply port is disposed at a side opposite to the center of the second treatment tool outlet port with respect to a straight line connecting the center of the observation window and the center of the first treatment tool outlet port.

Abstract: A sheet conveying device includes a housing, an opening unit, and a drive rotator. The opening unit is openably close the housing, the opening unit including a driven rotator including first driven rollers at each end regions of an axis of the driven rotator, and a second driven roller at a center region of the axis. The drive rotator forms a conveyance roller pair with the driven rotator to convey a sheet. The second driven roller has an outer diameter greater than each of the first driven rollers.

Abstract: An image reading apparatus includes a for-still-document contact glass serving as a reading face for a placed document, a for-moving-document contact glass serving as a reading face for a document conveyed by an automatic document feeder, and an optical scanner unit to move in a scanning range of the for-still-document contact glass back and forth in a sub-scanning direction to scan the document. The optical scanner unit moves to a scanning range of the for-moving-document contact glass and scans the document in a static manner when the document is conveyed in an automatic manner, and the optical scanner unit includes a contact image sensor, a carriage that holds the contact image sensor in a movable manner in the sub-scanning direction, and a pair of end sliders arranged on both ends of a plane facing the reading face in a longer-side direction of the optical scanner unit.
